New here. Bought a phantom 85v3

[BlaydeStocks]

Hello I’m Blayde. I’m from Louisiana
I bought the phantom 85v3 from bicycle engines. I have two bikes I don’t think will fit.

Probably getting a hyper beach cruiser

Hello I’m Blayde. I’m from Louisiana

I went ahead and edited your posting by adding those pics of the bikes that you had been thinking of using, just in case someone knows more than I do about not using them verses getting the Hyper Beach Cruiser...Just waiting for @Gordy to chime in...lol.

Thank you

Neither is a good choice because both of them are aluminum frame bicycles

About a phantom on a hyper cruiser?

About a phantom on a hyper cruiser?

Especially the rims you chose, anything he would need to know on building using the type of rims you bought, he already has my tutorial as to how I did things using mag wheels etc.

Ps...show pics of yours too...lol.

Phantom and Hyper...both...lol.

I don't have a phantom on my hyper anymore... But I guess I can help.


You'll want to upgrade the wheels. Something with disc brake mounts so you can run a sprocket on the rear. A cnc front mount for sure, and if you can upgrade it to discs.

This is my bike...

It now has a ported Avenger 85, but had a phantom on it previously. It's a nice fit.

But do not run the stock wheels, they will fall apart, and pull the fenders off

Here's the rims I got. I had to dish them an inch or two

Good point to make from a safety standpoint...The stock fenders WILL always break off because the tabs that hold them on weaken very quickly and easily due to increased speed and vibrations of a motorised bike.

Both Gordy and myself have opted for different styles of plastic type fenders that in my case, I reinforced their mountings so they will not just snap off.
